SpellCheck is a World of Warcraft Classic Era addon that helps players quickly verify whether they have learned all essential high-rank spells and spell books for their class, particularly those obtained from raids and quests.
Description
SpellCheck - Raid Spell Book Tracking
A loot master assistant addon that tracks which raid members need high-rank spell books from raids. Designed specifically for World of Warcraft Classic Era to help raid leaders efficiently distribute valuable spell books to players who actually need them.
**Note**: This addon requires other raid members to have SpellCheck installed to function at its full potential. The more people in your raid using it, the more useful it becomes for loot distribution decisions.
The combination of a persistent UI, automatic synchronization, raid roster monitoring, version management, and dynamic updates creates a seamless experience for raid leadership while keeping the simple `/sc` functionality available for individual players.
